When I download games from FitGirl (using qBittorrent and Mullvad) it wont seed. When I download Movies/Music it always seeds. Is FitGirl not taking Seeds or is there a problem with Mullvad? Thanks in advance, I dont want to be a leech and want to make sure I do my part.

    When you are seeding, you broadcast to other peers that you have pieces available. The most efficient way to exchange data is for them to open a connection to you. Without an open port (from port forwarding) they have no way to make this direct connection.
